If I were to simply say "I like music that doesn't suck" it doesn't really say much. By adding the part about my standards being the measure of judgment and what does and does not meet those standards, my thoughts are more clearly flushed out.

It might seem like an obvious statement to you but I can assure that if I had just said "I like music that doesn't suck" some smart-ass would have said something like "doesn't suck according to whom?"

My point was that it wasn't necessary at all (the thread is 'what kind of music are you into'). No big criticism, I was just being a smart ass. It made me smile because it immediately made me think of someone posting, "Here's the music I like, but, well, honestly, I personally think the stuff sucks."

I like Ministry's "With Sympathy"... because no matter how hard ass they try... Ministry will never get over that album in my book! It's like catching old footage of Marilyn Manson singing "Over the Rainbow"... if there was such a thing...

Some interesting selections, you might enjoy my show, Planet Trapezoid, on Dark Ryde. I play stuff in the neighborhood of Mr. Bungle and the Boredoms along with a lot of other off-center sounds. Give a listen
